A Weird Theater That Started In London

Vol 9 Chapter 31: Age of Awakening (1)

Looking in the direction of the police officer's finger, Lu Li noticed a man.

More precisely, a family of four.

Husband holds umbrella with one hand and sits upright on a public bench with a sleeping baby in his arms, wife rests her head on his shoulder, on woman's lap, another half child sleeps with her head on it .

At this moment, the man was looking at the undulating river surface, thinking intently.

On a rainy day, a man with his family sitting by the Thames River is not a good thing. Even Lu Li, a newcomer, knows the answer in his heart.

"Bring someone here and watch the child."

Lu Li ordered.

For a city, or even an era, individual power is really limited.

Mr. Holmes rescues Ithone, promising to find her a decent job.

And Lu Li intends to extend a helping hand to a family that is slipping into the abyss within the scope of his ability.

At the same time, Katie shook her head in despair and said solemnly, "The ship has left."

"Ask that man." Officer Wensley said helplessly, "They've been sitting here and should know the clues."

"What does the boat look like?"

"The three-masted sailing ship, very shabby."

After a few words, the male homeless man who was about to commit suicide was brought over. He left his wife and children on the bench and was looked after by a police officer.

"Sir... what's the matter?"

Looking at the uneasy man in front of him, Lu Li pressed the complicated emotions in his heart and asked, "Did you see a dilapidated three-masted sailboat leaving the yard?"

"As you can see, we are pursuing a serious case, and enthusiastic citizens who can provide key evidence will receive a generous bounty."

When he heard the bounty, Sabo's gray eyes finally brightened. In fact, he has been unemployed for two weeks. The day before yesterday, the family was kicked out by the landlord and became homeless. ...

"I was sitting here two hours ago, during which time only one ship left the dock, and as you said, it was very old and had three masts."

"Which direction did you go?"

"From west to east, toward the North Sea."

The moment he got the answer, Lu Li took out his wallet and left only one pound for himself. The other gold coins and the change were stuffed to Sabo.

"Take it, it's what you deserve."

First, there is no reason for this poor man to deceive the police, and secondly, Lu Li just wants him to accept the donation in a decent manner.

And that's enough money for two adults and two children to survive the hardships and live in the East End for two months.

Of course, they can also buy a bus ticket to escape this cannibalistic city and return to the countryside to live.

"I'm going to recruit people, let the fleet go after them, and salvage the bodies."

While Lu Li was looking at the river and pondering. Officer Wensley secretly decided in his heart that he should apply for a large amount of funds for their activities.

Why feel guilty?

Probably because of the misfortunes that happened in the fog, Wensley, a public official, felt uneasy, even though he was conscientious and abide by his duty.

tick... tick...

The rain flowed down the umbrella, and the man who provided the clue left with the child with a smile on his face, and the voice came from far away.

"Let's go, let's go to dinner, first eat the stewed elbows, then dip the gravy on soft bread..."

There are various signs that the investigation has entered its orbit and is moving towards the truth.

the other side.

Fort District Street, Queen's Tavern.

In the lively tavern, a group of workers in ragged clothes and covered in cinders were drinking and swearing, while a few warblers wandered among them.

"Some strange old gentleman."

"There's nothing to frustrate them."

"almost everyday."

"They all climbed through the city."

"Looking for prey—I mean young girls."

"Lead them astray."

"Take away their comfort and happiness."

Along with the cheerful tune, several workers sang songs, mocking those nobles who do not work but do not worry about food and clothing, and are idle all day long.

The workers couldn't understand. They opened their eyes and started to work. They were hungry and worked hard, but they didn't even have a decent place to live.

Where did all this wealth go?

As for this question, Zhou Tian can answer it, and Du Quan can also answer it.

That's right, the two brothers meet again and are ready to do something big.

In fact, the owner of this tavern is Zhou Tian. Most of the actors, including Lu Li, received nine pounds and fifteen pence of funds for the initial trial. He was the only one who started a tavern with a booming business.

"Gentlemen, today's 'Judge and Jury' night is about to begin, with the theme of 'The Ripper Serial Murder', and a few ladies are needed."

Zhou Tian has a good business acumen. He integrated the role-playing game into the entertainment program of the bar. He appointed himself the "Baron Judge" to preside over the mock trial, while the guests served as the jury.

In the past few days, Zhou Tian has also figured it out clearly. The most popular topics are divorce cases, emotional alienation of husband and wife, and various vicious cases.

Generally speaking, only men can participate in ~www.readwn.com~ and pay a shilling admission fee to purchase selected drinks and inferior cigars.

But today is different. Zhou Tian and Du Quan set up a new plot based on their own perceptions——

The Ripper arrives at the case and accepts the judgment of the Justice Court. During this period, several women are needed to act as actors.

"I regestrated."

"Why not spend a few shillings to experience it?"

"I didn't expect that I would also become a juror one day."

Soon, the room for the performance was filled, and the guests sat on the jury's bench, whispering to each other, of course, sitting up straight to make themselves look more like a nobleman.

After all, everyone hates capitalists, and everyone wants to be them, and Boss Zhou has given the working public an opportunity to experience it.

Under the gaze of hundreds of eyes, the person in charge of performing Jack came onto the stage. He was dressed in rags, his eyes were fierce, and he was wearing a worker's clothes.

Then, Liu Ying, who has received relevant training, came on stage one after another and played in his true colors.

Under the design of the genius screenwriter Du Quan, Jack became a slaughterer, working hard every day to support his wife and children, until one night, when he came home an hour early from get off work, he saw a maddening scene:

The wife cheated. In order to satisfy herself, she even engaged in lewd activities, but for the poor child, Jack forcibly held back.

However, as time went on, the son grew bigger, and the neighbors began to talk quietly. The boy didn't look like Jack at all.

His wife betrayed and his son was not his own flesh and blood. Jack the honest finally broke out. On a stormy night, he picked up the boning knife and returned home an hour early...
